Melanie Maddox Geffen

You may appear to be managing life well on the outside—staying productive, responsive, and connected—but internally feel anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained. Constant screen use can intensify this, keeping your nervous system in a state of stress and making it harder to fully process emotions or feel grounded. Over time, digital overload, past trauma, and life pressures can leave you stuck in cycles of burnout, distraction, or disconnection.

I specialize in trauma-informed therapy for individuals navigating anxiety, burnout, and screen-related stress. If you’ve tried talking through your experiences but still feel stuck, it may be because those experiences are held not just in your thoughts, but in your nervous system. Using EMDR, Brainspotting, and evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and ACT, we work together to process what’s holding you back and create lasting, embodied change.

My approach is individualized, culturally responsive, and grounded in over 10 years of counseling and coaching experience. I help clients build a healthier relationship with technology, regulate their nervous systems, and reconnect with balance, clarity, and well-being.

If you’re ready to feel less overwhelmed and more present in your life, I invite you to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a good fit.
